Abstract in brief
The paper explains that the brain solves the problem of prediction and perception by creating and inverting hierarchical models of the world, which helps it interpret sensory information.
It uses the free energy principle, proposing that the brain minimizes a quantity called free energy to efficiently infer the causes of sensory data and recognize patterns or sequences.
The authors demonstrate these ideas with simulations of artificial birds that can identify and categorize birdsongs, showing that the brain's structure supports this inference process.]

@JulioMTNeuro Based on citations, this “old” one presents the “theory” https://t.co/BTnj3i90Od but needles to say that p coding is formally subsumed by active inference (I am assuming though that you are only interested in “passive” perception and not in “active” decision making. Right?

Today's reading attempt: Predictive coding under the free-energy principle, Karl Friston* and Stefan Kiebel. https://t.co/6v6TpagMZy The math is complicated and compressed enough that I think some sort of tutorial could be helpful. It does, however, have nice illustrations. https://t.co/w9uJyFrPjz
